October 18, 290 in the imperial calendar of the British Empire.

21:31 p.m.

On the outskirts of pandragon.

A procession of horses and chariots were rattling at great speed towards the north gate of pandragon, the capital of the British Empire.

Teams of black Armored Cavalry, armed with torches, surrounded by a delicate and luxurious carriage, like a long lighted snake, headed towards the north gate of pandragon.

The total number of black Armored Cavalry surrounded by this luxury carriage is at least more than 100. It can be seen from the war horses under their hips, the armor they wear, and their exquisite horsemanship and solemn faces that this group of black Armored Cavalry is definitely an elite division in the army.

Sitting in such a luxurious carriage and protected by more than 100 elite cavalry, we can see what a big man the people sitting in this carriage will be.

The man sitting in this carriage is an old man with gray hair and beard.

From the appearance, the old man is about 60 years old and only 1.7 meters tall. He has a thin body.

Although the old man is old, his eyes are still sharp and divine.

It was late at night, but the old man was sleepless.

He looked out of the window and silently looked at the scenery outside the carriage in the moonlight.

The fields, woods, streams in the field, and the mountains in the distance, which can only barely see the outline, are retreating rapidly.

The old people who frequently travel between the capital and the Northern Territory are already very familiar with the scenery in the northern suburbs of the capital.

The old man can see from the scenery outside the car that he is very close to the capital pandragon.

Thinking of this, the old man took a deep breath and inhaled the cold air at night into his lungs.

Breathing the cold air of the night, the old man couldn't help but cheer up, and then shouted:

"Coachman! Faster! "

"Yes!"

The coachman waved his whip skillfully.

The horse whip in the coachman's hand waved a beautiful whip flower in mid air, and the four horses drove up to the sky at the same time.

The escorting cavalry also waved the whip in their hands and drove the horses under their hips to keep up with the accelerated carriage at this time.

The party ran faster and faster towards Pendragon.

In the past, even at night, the largest city of the British Empire would not lose its vitality. Even at night, the lights of pandragon could still illuminate half of the sky, and the vitality would not be inferior to that of day.

However, now that the round table is about to be held, pandragon has imposed a curfew for the sake of security.

The original "sleepless city" has lost its infinite vitality at night and become silent because of the curfew.

However, the guards who stood at the gate of the imperial capital like a hard rock did not show any slack because of the advent of night.

Almost all the great figures of the Empire gathered in pandragon at this time because of the round table, so now pandragon's security work has been strict to a morbid degree.

Not only did the guards who were responsible for watching the gate of the city not show any slack because of the coming of night, but also the patrols who had been running around and back to the streets of the imperial capital did not slow down their pace because of the coming of night.

Soon, the guards guarding the north gate of panderagon heard the sound of cars and horses from far to near.

The guards guarding the north gate looked closely. In front of them, there was a team of cars and horses running towards them.

——It was the old man's carriage and the hundred or so elite cavalry who were responsible for escorting him.

After seeing this team of vehicles and horses, the soldiers guarding the north gate exchanged eyes one after another.

Everyone's eyes immediately became sharp.

Everyone moved their wrists and ankles and was ready to fight.

"Stop!"

Near the north gate of pandragon, the team began to slow down.

With a guard's "stop", the team just stopped.

"Who are you?"

Just now the guard who shouted "stop" asked.

As soon as the guard finished saying this, the other guards behind him quietly put their hands on the sword around their waist, or put their index fingers on the trigger of the crossbow that was already waiting to be fired.

They are all ready for battle. Once they find that the Malay team is not good, they will fight back immediately.

The leader of the team turned over and dismounted with great skill, then walked quickly to the guard who had just asked, fell in his ear and whispered a few words.

After whispering a few words, he took an object out of his arms and showed it to the guard.

After hearing what he said to him and having seen what he showed him, the guard flashed a look of surprise on his face.

"... just impolite, let go!"

The first half of the guard's sentence was to the leader of the team, and the second half was to the other guards behind him.

After hearing this "release", the guards lifted the original fighting state one after another, then separated the two sides and gave way to the middle Avenue, so that the team could drive into pandragon.

After the guards gave way, the team drove again and drove slowly into pendragonne.

Just now, the guard in charge of questioning watched the team leave. Until the team had completely disappeared from his field of vision, he took back his eyes and whispered to himself:

"Even the governor of the Northern Territory has come... But it's normal. All local dignitaries have to attend meetings at the level of round table. As the governor of the Northern Territory with the greatest power and the widest jurisdiction, of course, there's no reason not to attend..."

……

After entering the panderagon, the team naturally can no longer run wild like just outside the city.

The motorcade drove slowly through the city at an extremely gentle speed, slowly towards their destination, the residence of Jacob Churchill, Prime Minister of the imperial palace of Britannia.

On the way to Jacob's residence, the motorcade was naturally questioned by many patrols.

But after knowing who the owner of the convoy was, all the patrols immediately respectfully stepped aside and released.

Soon the motorcade arrived at the door of Jacob's house.

After arriving at Jacob's house, all the elite cavalry immediately turned over and dismounted, surrounded the carriage and waited for the old man sitting in the carriage to get off.

"Mr Humphrey." The coachman said respectfully to the carriage behind him, "we have arrived at Mr. Jacob's house."

"Yes."

With a whisper from inside the carriage, the carriage opened.

The old man stepped steadily down from the carriage.

After the old man got off the carriage, the cavalry who had just guarded the carriage immediately rushed up and formed a Taoist wall to surround the old man.

The reason why we want to surround the old man like this is to prevent the assassins of the enemy country. When the old man gets off the bus now, we use a special strong crossbow to snipe the old man.

Under the protection of this heavy human wall, unless the "giant siege crossbow" used for siege is used, it is impossible to break through this heavy human wall and shoot the old people protected by this heavy human wall.

Under the protection of these elite cavalry, the old man entered Jacob's house safely.

After entering Jacob's house, a middle-aged man dressed as a waiter immediately greeted him: "Mr. Humphrey, this way, please. Mr. Jacob is already waiting for you."

"Well, it's hard for you." The old man replied, "please lead the way."

"Yes."

The waiter took the old man around seven times. In order to prevent assassins, Jacob's residence was specially set up in an extremely complex way.

Moreover, there are also a large number of tunnels and secret passages throughout the residence to ensure that Jacob can escape from here immediately and safely in case of attack by assassins.

After walking for some time, the old man was finally led to a room.

"Mr. Jacob is inside." The waiter said, "well, I'll leave first."

"Yes."

After the waiter stepped down and completely disappeared from the old man's field of vision, the old man pushed open the door of the room.

This room has almost no furniture. In the empty room, there is only a small round table in the middle.

An old man with white beard and hair, sharp eyes like an eagle and wearing a pair of monocles is sitting at this small round table, smiling at the old man who just opened the door.

"Humphrey, I haven't seen you for a long time. The last time I saw you was at the year-end dinner at the end of last year? How time flies. Ten months have passed at once. "

"Yes." The old man, who has been expressionless since he just did it, also smiled on his face, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Jacob."
